The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) aims to protect the health of pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, and of infants and children up to age 5 from low-income families. Because of their economically disadvantaged situation, these women and children are at nutritional risk. WIC provides checks for nutritious foods and supplement diets in the approx. amount of ten million dollars ($10 mill.) annually, as well as literature and classes on healthy eating, including breastfeeding promotion and support. These nutrition information forums help new mothers learn how to nourish their families as well as possible. The ODA WIC Program is the largest individualized WIC program in the United States.
